The Magic of In-Between & Curious Queue #7

Jennifer Hotes Season 4 Episode 7

When pondering, debating, writing or planning our focus tends fall to the extremes; this or that, which means we ignore the stuff in-between. It probably traces back to some survival mechanism our ancestors developed to determine what foods were safe to eat, what passages were too risky to travel, where we might be safe to sleep at night, and what hours of the day to do which behaviors. 

But like the ego, which we've discussed in past episodes, maybe it's time for a human upgrade. In fact, maybe the biggest breakthroughs in humanity lie in that juicy in-between space.

On a recent trip to Chicago with my mom, our in between time was where the magic happened. Forgotten stories from her childhood and young adulthood were shared. As we rode in the back seat of an Uber to the ballpark, or home from a museum, or on our way to a river boat tour, well, that's when, with the city scrolling past the windows, my mother's deep memories came forward. I want YOU to benefit from the magic of in between, too.

Not just by taking advantage of the time and space between Points A and B, but also by paying attention during all the moments.

Let's get into it!
